CHRISTIANITY / PERSECUTION 

This is very, very concerning.  The FBI is targeting Catholics using the excuse of "terrorism".   You can't make this stuff up.  

A member of Congress from Ohio has issued a subpoena to FBI Director Christopher Wray. Republican Jim Jordan says he wants answers about a since withdrawn memo from the FBI's Richmond office. The letter focused on alleged extremism within the US Catholic Church. According to Representative Jordan, the bureau was targeting Catholics and seeking to use churches in part "as potential sources to monitor and report on their parishioners." President of Franciscan University of Steubenville in Ohio, Fr. Dave Pivonka, joins to share his reaction to Representative Jordan's push demanding answers about this memo. Fr. Pivonka tells us his thoughts on the push to target Catholic churches. He discusses why he thinks this memo specifically mentioned Catholics and what that signals. Another story in the news, military hospital Walter Reed canceled its Catholic pastoral services provided by Franciscan friars. Now, a secular non-profit will provide pastoral care. Fr. Pivonka helps us unpack this and why it could be problematic for Catholic patients.

JORDAN B. PETERSON / TRANSGENDER MOVEMENT / MIRIAM GROSSMAN

This is an amazing MUST WATCH interview between Jordan Peterson and Miriam Grossman.   The subject is the politicization of the the science of psychology, and how it's now an ideological movement devoid of logic, ethics, or science itself. 

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and Miriam Grossman discuss the grief and trauma associated with the Transgender movement, not just for those transitioning, but for the parents and families who now find themselves shunned and alienated if they refuse to affirm their own child's delusion. They also go into detail on the history of the ideology, the monstrosity of Dr. John Money, and his horrendous failed experiment on which he built his doctrines.

Before gender ideology was on anyone’s radar, she warned parents about its dangers in her 2009 book, “You’re Teaching My Child WHAT?” Dr. Grossman has been vocal for many years about the capture of her profession by ideologues, leading to dangerous and experimental treatments on children and betrayal of parents. Dr. Grossman was featured in the Daily Wire’s hit documentary “What Is A Woman?” The author of four books, her work has been translated into eleven languages. After graduating with honors from Bryn Mawr College, Dr. Grossman attended New York University Medical School. She completed an internship in pediatrics at Beth Israel Hospital in New York City, and a residency in psychiatry through Cornell University Medical College, followed by a fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry.
